According to TMZ.com, Maurice Jones-Drew of the
Jacksonville Jaguars has been charged with battery after an
incident at a resort in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in which a
security guard was knocked unconscious.

According to the report, Jones-Drew, who led the NFL in rushing
in 2011, was at the resort's restaurant when security told a
companion of Jones-Drew to stop touching a young female. A
scuffle then broke out between the companion and security.

When a guard placed Jones-Drew's friend in a headlock, witnesses
told the police that Jones-Drew allegedly threw one punch that
knocked the security guard out.

The police report indicated that the security guard's jaw was
swollen "a great deal" and had "a large lump." The guard was
hospitalized, but did not have any broken bones.

Jones-Drew has one year left on his 5-year, $31.1 million
contract with the Jags.
